Mac, Linux Support For Quake Live, Preview of Rage 79

AlexMax2742 writes "Great news for those anxious gamers who have been waiting for a Linux and Mac version of Quake Live. Support for both is being implemented with next Tuesday's update, according to project lead Marty Stratton, who gave the release date during a press conference held at QuakeCon 2009. A video of the press conference is up at QuakeUnity." John Carmack revealed that they're working on a "premium" subscription service for Quake Live, which will allow players to configure and run their own private servers. Also at QuakeCon, a new trailer was released for id's upcoming shooter, Rage. Kotaku posted an extensive preview of Rage, saying, "I've seen no game that, in this realistic style, looks so good and has a landscape so rich with visual splendor." A detailed presentation on id Tech 5, the new game engine behind Rage, was given at SIGGRAPH 2009 last week.

One place this scheme will probably fail is if the company uses a private IP address range which is the same as the privcate IP address range the employee is currently connected to - in this case, the routing has to fail to connect to machines in one or other subnet - but thats the problem with nat...

Heh
That thing happened me today when trying to connect to my Windows machine at work through a PPTP VPN connection. My office computer moved to another subnet: 192.168.1.0 which is the same subnet in my home network.
I had to add a routing rule in NetworkManager to route my workstation IP through the VPN.(I spent like 3 hours with someone over the phone, before I figured out the problem).

Why is 2008 better than 2005? I've read some whitepapers but I find it to be almost the same when it comes to userful stuff.
